Now that I've accepted myself, I keep getting all these flashbacks of different moments in my childhood of when I realized I was a girl or liked girly things or was uncomfortable in my body. Has anyone else had this happen? Do you have any way to stop them or lessen their impact? When I get them it tends to take all my attention away from what I'm doing.
I can't say I've had flashbacks like that. I sometimes will sit down and remember different things in my childhood, though. How do you feel about having them?
I don't have flashbacks really. The memories for me tend to come back in dreams, so that can be a bit weird sometimes.
I've never had flashbacks per se, but I have been able with the benefit of hindsight to look back on actions and events in my lifetime and see that some things (such as the fact that I always presented as female on the internet) had more meaning that I may have know or wanted to admit at the time.
It's a bit confusing for me, I dont have flashbacks or the like, but I can remember times as a child where I was definitely a boy, and other times were I really really wanted to be a girl. It puts a lot of context to the memories, but they were always there. Unless there's some memories I am not remembering because I repressed them I suppose, but I don't thiink so.
I know what you're talking about, but I wouldn't say I necessarily say I have "flashbacks" but I used to get a ton of memories every now-and-then from my childhood.
